  • October 2018 Overview
    Autumn Budget October 2018 Overview Introduction A Budget for “Strivers, Grafters and Carers” Budgets, as we all know, take place on Wednesdays. After the excitement of Prime Minister’s Questions, the Deputy Speaker calls ‘the Chancellor of the Exchequer’ and he – so far we have not had a female Chancellor – bounds to his feet, delivering an upbeat message about the nation’s finances and pouring scorn on Her Majesty’s Opposition in equal measure. Most people had been expecting this year’s Budget to be in November: for a long time, Wednesday 19th or 26th looked the likely dates. But the Budget has been brought forward to avoid being enmeshed in the latest rounds of Brexit negotiations in late November. So why not Wednesday, October 31st? The newspapers are convinced that Philip Hammond did not want to give their headline writers an open goal by presenting a Budget on Hallowe’en and so Monday it was. The Economic and Political Background When he was Chancellor, George Osborne constantly repeated the mantra that whatever he did as Chancellor, far bigger forces were acting on the UK economy. We can see that all too plainly at the moment with the continuing trade war between the US and China which – with both Donald Trump and Xi Jinping seemingly holding entrenched positions – shows no sign of ending soon. Closer to home, a stand-off is developing between the EU and the Italian government over Italy’s budget. In simple terms, the Italian government want to kickstart the economy – which has barely grown for ten years – with a programme of public spending.

  • Read the Talk by Robert Tombs
    The ‘Remainer’ project: a crisis for what? No one who demands that Brexit should be reversed or sabotaged ever admits that the course they advocate is reckless. The foundation of their position is that it is the safe option -- a return to the status quo preceding the 2016 Referendum, or as close to it as possible. Then, goes the story, our economy will be safe, our relationships with our EU neighbours secure, our standing in the world restored. We return to a pre-Referendum Garden of Eden. This is rarely argued explicitly, and never in detail, but it is inescapably there by implication. Yet the idea that there is a normality to return to, a safe status quo, is a mirage. The EU is in a state of chronic political, financial and social instability. This is not Eurosceptic sour grapes: it is the view repeatedly and forcefully put by President Emmanuel Macron, who is widely regarded, not only by himself, as the man who can save the European project from collapse. Both in his book Révolution (2016) and in his important speech at the Sorbonne on 26 Sept 2017, he has described the EU as suffering an existential crisis, unable to remedy its glaring policy failures and in danger of losing the support of its peoples. The EU, he says, is ‘too weak, to slow, too ineffective’. The EU’s instability is evident to all who can bring themselves to look. Spain -- the only country in Western Europe to hold elected politicians in jail -- is deadlocked over Catalonia. Comparable separatist movements have been engendered by the EU, whether deliberately or by default, in France, Italy, Belgium and of course the United Kingdom, and the EU has no idea how to cope with them.

Supported b y It is produced by the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities in partnership with the Black and Ethnic Minority Infrastructure in Scotland , and is supported by the Scottish Government. Briefing: The New UK Parliament and Government General Election Results The elections to the UK Parliament in May 2010 resulted in the Conservative Party having the largest number of seats although no single party has an overall majority. Number of MPs elected in each political party Conservative 306 Labour 258 Liberal Democrat 57 Democratic Unionist Party 8 SNP 6 Sinn Fein 5 Plaid Cymru 3 Social Democratic & Labour Party 3 Alliance Party 1 Green 1 Independent 1 One seat still has to be decided. This is because one of the candidates for Thirsk and Morton died after nominations closed. As a result, no voting took place in that constituency, and a by-election will be held on 27 May. Negotiations between the main parties have resulted in an agreement to form a Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition government, the first such agreement since 1945. The practicalities of this are not yet clear, but the Ministerial team includes MPs from both parties, and some policy compromises have already been announced. 1 MEMO+ The New UK Parliament and Government May 2010 How does the Parliament work?

  • UK National Academies Letter to the Home Secretary
    The Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for the Home Department Home Office 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF 16 November 2018 Dear Secretary of State, As your department prepares to publish a White Paper on immigration, we are writing to highlight the importance of international mobility for research and innovation in the UK and to ask for the opportunity to meet you to discuss this further. The UK’s strength in research and innovation is fundamental to addressing the unprecedented societal, economic and business challenges we face locally, nationally and internationally. As our economic competitors strive to boost their research and technology sectors, the most sought after international talent can choose to go elsewhere. If they are faced with excessive bureaucratic or financial barriers, or if they are given the impression that the UK is becoming more inward-looking, the UK will lose out. It is plain to us that the government will not be able to deliver its ambitious target to invest 2.4% of GDP into UK R&D without ensuring that the UK’s immigration system supports research and innovation. As the Prime Minister highlighted earlier this year “science is an international exercise and discoveries know no borders”. The Migration Advisory Committee also recognised that highly- skilled people from around the world contribute to the UK economy and help to create the UK’s vibrant and world-leading research and innovation system. Almost 30% of academic staff at UK Universities are non-UK nationals and in some disciplines this is even higher. For example, 64% of our researchers in economics, for which the UK is internationally renowned, are non-UK nationals with 39%from non-UK EU countries and 25% from elsewhere in the worldi.

I have derived much satisfaction from the many years that I have been able to help and support The Queen. Few others, if any, have had the satisfaction of witnessing the affection and respect that so many people round the world have shown for The Queen since the beginning of her reign. I acknowledge that the position I have held has made it possible for me to support and encourage a great many valuable and worthwhile organisations in this country and further afield.

  • 1 Andrew Marr Show, Philip Hammond, Chancellor of Exchequer
    1 ANDREW MARR SHOW, PHILIP HAMMOND, CHANCELLOR OF EXCHEQUER ANDREW MARR SHOW 19TH NOVEMBER 2017 PHILIP HAMMOND, MP CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER AM: Nick Timothy, Theresa May’s former Chief of Staff launched a scathing attack this week saying, ‘the Chancellor lacks a burning desire to change people’s lives for the better.’ Philip Hammond’s with me now and that is not just Nick Timothy, is it? A lot of Tories think you’re very very good on the numbers but you’re a bit lousy when it comes to the big politics. PH: Well, frankly, nobody would be in politics if they didn’t have a desire to change people’s lives for the better. We might disagree about how we do that. I personally believe that a solid economy, a sound economy, growing, offering people opportunities for the future is an absolutely essential bedrock to a civilised country and I want to see us creating a world in which people can realise those opportunities in the post-Brexit world we’re facing. AM: But your party desperately needs something to change. Is this going to be a big exciting budget that really gets the country going? PH: Well look, all budgets are big political events and I hope what Wednesday will do is give me an opportunity to set out again our vision for Britain post-Brexit and our plan for getting there. Our plan for delivering that vision. Because I do think we’re at something of a turning point. We’ve had a difficult year.
